Description
A radiodiagnosis nuclear medicine technician is a doctor who uses the radioactive properties of certain substances for diagnostic applications (because of radiation's ability to make internal organs and biochemical processes visible) and to treat illnesses (because of the ability of intense radiation to kill cells).
These doctors use radioactive isotopes, nuclear radiation, electromagnetic variations of components of the atomic nucleus and related biophysical techniques for medical prevention, diagnosis, therapy and research. In addition, they know and study the biological phenomena that generate radioactive isotopes, the use of cyclotrons and nuclear reactors to produce radionucleidos for medical use, and the application of image reconstruction systems and data processing systems.
A radiodiagnosis nuclear medicine technician should have sound knowledge of various basic and applied sciences, such as physics, chemistry, electronics, cybernetics and pharmacy, and other branches of medicine, such as physiology, pathophysiology and radiology, to obtain information on the morphology and functioning of the organs of the body marked with radioisotopes.
